Hairdressing Apprenticeship

Working side-by-side with world class experts in our prestigious West End salon, you will gain hands-on experience from day one. 

The Daniel Galvin Apprenticeship Programme provides three years of training, guidance and experience at the start of your hairdressing career.

During the programme you will work towards your NVQ Level 2 qualification, and receive training from Daniel Galvin’s own top hair stylists, colourists, trainers, and the Central Hairdressing Academy, the largest NVQ Level 2 training provider in the UK.

A hairdressing apprenticeship with Daniel Galvin allows you to gain relevant practical experience in one of the best working environments, whilst gaining a nationally recognised qualification. There are no course fees, and you will receive the National Minimum Apprentice Rate while you are training.

No previous experience or qualifications are necessary, we are looking for a commitment to a career in hairdressing, creativity, enthusiasm and a great work ethic.

You should have excellent communication skills, be able to work as part of a team, and be punctual and reliable.

“My first day was nerve-racking because Daniel Galvin is such a top name. I had worked in a smaller salon before and soon realised how different the atmosphere was here – you have to work hard, but it is fun & relaxed. You get a rush of excitement because its a big busy salon.

Working in the salon means I learnt every day, I was assigned to a colourist and they teach you everything. All day, every day you are picking up skills and learning – not just twice a week! I really enjoy learning from the best and working for Daniel.”
